My Friends in Starfleet,
Let me take this opportunity to welcome you to the Amalgamation of Non-Aligned Lifeforms Starfleet, known to those in the know as ANAL Starfleet. For those of you just entering this wonderful segment of our universe, please check your sanity at the door. Life in ANAL Starfleet is usually surprising, filled with hard work, menial labor, ridiculous assignments, and great rewards. For those who are already officers, you know that the above is a lie perpetrated by our select group to keep the unwanted refuse of the galaxy from applying. Well, it's all lies except the great rewards part. And the ridiculous assignments.
Your mission is, if you decide to accept it (see, we'll copy anything), to help explore the universe, seek out new life-forms and new civilizations (there I go again) and to figure out a way to turn those discoveries into a tidy, on-going profit venture for Niagara Industries, Ltd. And, of course, to wreak havoc among our sworn and sworn-at enemies, the Klingfrees and the Remoulades, not to mention the Bjornn.
Have fun exploring the universe with us! And remember the Starfleet motto,
'Keep The Peace As Best You Can!
'
My Eminence,
Hiawatha M. Niagara,
Admiral of the Fleet
